The interviewer is looking for evidence that you have some basic knowledge of the logistics industry. How you answer this question will indicate to the interviewer the level of experience that you have in their industry.
Even if you have not worked in the logistics industry before, you should have conducted some industry-related research before your interview. Remember, the interviewer is not necessarily looking for a full understanding of systems and processes (depending on the level of role you are interviewing for) - they may merely be looking for an indication of sincere interest in what they do at ArcBest Corporation.

"From my understanding, LTL carriers will transport goods from multiple companies at a time. LTL or, Less Than Truckload, means that the shipper and deliverer may reach an agreement on reduced pricing if they aren't filling an entire truck. Instead of the price being based on the whole truck, it will be calculated according to the weight of the shipment, and the distance."

"Although I am new to the logistics industry, I believe that LTL is related to the shipping of partial loads. With that said, I am here to learn. Could you take a moment to explain LTL briefly to me?"
